LCD ScreenLaser Port 1 Laser Port 2 Port Illumination Ring Port Selection Buttons Emergency Switch Key Switch LIO Illuminator Power Port Aiming Beam Intensity Knob LIO Illuminator LIO Illuminator Power Knob Menu Knob Standby/Ready Mode Button Interval Time Knob Pulse Duration Knob Power Knob 2.2 8065751131 LCD Screen The LCD screen is the communication interface between the surgeon and the system. It provides the surgeon with system status and parameters by displaying text and icons relevant to the current operating state. The background color of this screen is gray when the system is in the Standby state and green when is in the Ready state. When the laser is fi red, "Laser On" is display in a red box at the bottom of the screen. Figure 2-2 shows a typical screen that may be displayed on the LCD. Each screen displayed by the system is described in detail later in this section. System messages (advisories, errors, and warnings) are listed in the Troubleshooting section of this manual. Laser Ports 1 and 2 Dual SMA connectors are provided on the front panel to connect the PurePoint™ Laser to the desired delivery system; i.e., Slit Lamp adaptation, Laser Indirect Ophthalmoscope (LIO), or Endoprobe/Aspirating probe. Each port has an Radio Frequency Identifi cation (RFID) reader that can identify Alcon RFID enabled probes and automatically set up the default power and time parameters for the specifi c probe. Laser fi bers without RFID must be identifi ed by the operator when prompted on the display. Port Illumination Ring The Laser Ports are surrounded by a ring of LED's that provide background illumination for the port and enable the user to visually verify the following items: • Indicates that the port is selected. • Indicates that an unidentifi ed probe has been inserted into the port. • Indicates that a fault has been detected on the port and the port is no longer available. Port Available Illumination Color: BLUE If no probe is connected to a port, the Port Illumination Ring is illuminated in the color blue. Selected Port Illumination Color: GREEN If an identifi ed probe is inserted into the port and the port is selected, the Port Illumination Ring is illuminated in the color green. Unidentifi ed Probe Indication Color: ORANGE If a probe is inserted into the port and is unidentifi able by the system, the Port Illumination Ring is illuminated in the color orange, indicating that the probe must be identifi ed before it can be used. Figure 2-2 Typical PurePoint ® PurePoint ® PurePoint Screen 8065751131 2.3 A message is displayed as shown in Figure 2-3 prompting the user to identify the probe as one of three instruments displayed in the menu options. After the user has identifi ed the probe: • The Port Illumination Ring is illuminated in the color green if the port is the only port with an identifi ed probe. • The Port Illumination Ring is not lighted if the other port already contains an identifi ed probe. The port with the newly-identifi ed probe is not the selected port. The Port Selection Button must be pushed for the probe to be selected. Disabled Port Indication Color: RED If the PurePoint™ software determines a port cannot be used due to a mechanical or software fault, the Port Illumination Ring is illuminated in the color red. Port Selection Buttons When each port has an identifi ed probe, pressing one of the Port Selection Buttons selects the associated port. The Port Selection Buttons are active only when there are identifi ed probes in each port. In all other cases (such as an unidentifi ed probe in one port, only one port being used, no identifi ed probes in a port, etc.) the PurePoint™ software will take the correct action. When a selection is made, the LED surrounding the desired port illuminates green. If selecting a port for the fi rst time after starting the system with an identifi ed endoprobe or slit lamp attachment, a screen is displayed asking the user to confi rm that the Dr. Filter is in place. Emergency Switch Pressing the Emergency Switch turns off the laser system immediately. To restore power, pull the Emergency Switch to the out position. The system will return to the Standby mode. Keyswitch The Keyswitch is a two position switch where the key can be removed only in OFF position. In the OFF position, the power to the laser is shut off.

8065751131 5.1 SECTION FIVE TROUBLESHOOTING SYSTEM MESSAGES System messages advise the user of a system condition that requires an action and/or a response in order to proceed with the current procedure. Advisory Messages Advisory messages (see Table 5-1) are informational messages that help guide the user or bring attention to the laser’s condition. • Advisory messages appear on the same blue-gray background that many labels and prompts appear on. • Advisory messages can appear when the device is in Standby or Ready mode. They do not appear when the device is in Firing mode. • Advisory messages will cause the system to switch from Ready to Standby mode. Warning Messages Warning messages (see Table 5-2) are precautionary messages displayed on a yellow background to inform the user of a possible safety or procedural problem that may occur in any mode. The following events take place: • The laser is placed into Standby mode. • The user is presented with one of two types of display, an Acknowledgement screen or an Operating screen, each of which asks for an action before the user continues with the procedure: The Acknowledgement Screen presents the user with information that describes the problem. The user must select a response, using the Menu knob, stating that they have seen and acknowledged the message. This acknowledgement is recorded in the laser’s system log. The display returns to the regular operating display in Standby mode. Attempting to go to Ready Mode without taking requested action results in the system continuing to display the Acknowledgement Screen. The Operating display allows the user to perform operational tasks such as adjusting the laser parameters while a warning prompt appears at the top of the screen asking the user to perform an action. After the requested action is performed, the warning prompt is removed and the display returns to the regular operating display in Standby mode. If the user tries to go to Ready mode without performing the requested action, the prompt starts blinking in order to get the attention of the user. The laser will remain in Standby mode until the action is performed. 5.2 8065751131 Error Messages Errors are major faults in the system that cannot be resolved by either software, hardware, or user action. The following events take place: • The laser is placed in a safe state (laser engine is turned off and shutter is closed). • The user is told by an error message and voice confi rmation that a fault has taken place. • The front panel controls are not functional other than the emergency shut-off switch and the On/Off key. The footswitch controls are also not functional. An error message is usually an indication that the system requires service in order to correct the problem.
